The centre of Whitby, and Whitby Harbour are just a short walk away from The Alby, so it’s ideal if you want to experience what life is like living by the sea.

The area is famous for the quality of its fish and chip restaurants, and there are plenty of places where you can sink your teeth into a fresh catch. When you fancy a drink, you’ll find a variety of bars as well as pubs and shops in the local area.

Whitby is also famous for Bram Stoker’s gothic novel ‘Dracula’. You’ll find plenty of sites near the property with historic interest relating to the story. The main inspiration can be found at the renowned ruined Whitby Abbey.

Step outside of Whitby and you’ll uncover a haven of woodland and moorland. In particular, Dalby Forest and Guisborough Forest, just a short drive away and they both have various beautiful walking and cycling routes to explore.

The Alby is just a short walk to the town centre, Whitby harbour and the bus and train station. Villages and towns along the North Yorkshire coast can easily be reached via rail. There’s also a taxi rank in close proximity to the train station.

There are plenty of bus routes throughout Whitby. Hop on the X4 and you can visit beautiful coastal villages like Sandsend, Runswick Bay and Staithes. The X93 travels along the coast to Scarborough. The 95 route features plenty of quaint villages, such as Grosmont and Lealholm.

Lovely property and great location
We stayed over Easter 2022, 3 generations, and loved it. The property feels so spacious, with lovely decor throughout and very clean. The kitchen & living space had enough room to cook, store and seat everyone and the garden was a treat when the sun shone. Overall a great property, walkable easily into the main town.

Very good
I was pleased with the house and location. The only negative is that outside was not clean enough to enable our children to play out and I hadn’t realised the height of steps etc. Front and back gardens need some work still to be the standard of inside.
